Salsa de Col Estilo Yucatán

Yucatán Cabbage Salsa

A crisp, fiery salsa made with shredded cabbage, red onion, and habanero chile was brought to the table at Café Express in Merida, in the state of Yucatán. The salsa was fiercely hot, but hard to resist. This recipe is my interpretation of that salsa. Mix this salsa in a glass or ceramic bowl. (The cabbage and acids in the citrus juices may react with the metal of some bowls, such as aluminum, and alter the color and flavor.) Serve with grilled fish, pork, or chicken.
